The professors that I have come in contact with so far at VSU, have all be amazing. The knowledge held within the school grounds is overwelming. I feel as though a little bit every day rubs off and sticks to me. I have learned so much being on Virginia State's campus. Not only was I learning from the professors and administrators, but other students and student leaders as well. 4 stars.

    Virginia State University is the most academically focused, student friendly, and socially active campus there is. It keeps you focused on your academics while also keeping you social actives with events held in the evening and on weekends. There is not a better place to be where you can get the best of both worlds right here on campus.

    Virginia State University was my FIRST choice when looking for universities to attend. I am really glad that I chose VSU to further my education. If I had to rank it based on a scale of 1-10, it would rank 8.

    A great place to lean and become successful. You will have a sense a pride and dedication when you become a part of the college community and learn about the history of the university. A place where I feel like my future is in the process of being born and I will do anything to make it come to reality.

    Virginia State University lives above the stereotypes of HBCUs . They have caring educators with high expectations as well as activities for many different backgrounds. I love my HBCU.

    This campus is great the atmosphere, the other students and the teachers are all friendly. VSU is good for people who want to relax and also get a higher education. The police force on campus make sure that the campus is safe.
